Short answer: the Minirig 4. It ranks #7 of 177 medium speakers by sound quality, rated 4.3/5, at $229.95. The Harman Kardon Luna 2 ranks #25, rated 4.1/5, at $199.95, $30 cheaper, a saving that is not big enough to make up the sound-quality gap.
The Harman Kardon Luna 2 is the tougher option. A stylish waterproof speaker with clear, spacious mids, tight bass that stays clean at volume, and stereo pairing with a second unit. It is rated IP67 against Splash resistant for the Minirig 4. The catch: Treble can sound bright and edgy, and it loses more output off-axis than some rivals.
The Minirig 4 is the longer-running, lighter option. A small, long lasting speaker that gets loud and can add a matching subwoofer, with a 30 hour battery. It is rated for 30 hours of battery against 12 for the Harman Kardon Luna 2. At 1.2 lbs (550 g) it weighs noticeably less than the Harman Kardon Luna 2 at 1.6 lbs (735 g). It supports AAC Bluetooth, which the Harman Kardon Luna 2 lacks. The catch: Calls itself splash resistant and has no official water rating.
Buy the Minirig 4. It is rated higher for sound quality, and the $30 you would save on the Harman Kardon Luna 2 does not close the gap.
